Chief of Staff to the Senator representing Delta Central Senatorial District, Olorogun Barr. Adelabu Bodjor has scored Distinguished Senator Ede Dafinone very high in performance, stating that he deserves a second term in office.
Olorogun Bodjor stated this while fielding questions from newsmen, shortly after playing host to a new political pressure group known as Ughelli South Political Colonels, USPC, in his country home, Ekakpamre today September 14, 2025.
The APC stalwart from Ughelli South Ughelli South Local Area, averred that Senator Dafinone introduced a new dimension in political representation by emphasizing the concept of teaching his constituents how to fish rather than doling out hand packs in the name of empowerment.
“The man started the job and he has not even gone half way, he has improved on the political lives of Delta Central and it is only reasonable, it is only fair and proper that we give him more opportunity to build into the wonderful foundation he has started. So, he is coming back and I’m very sure he has done enough for the people to vote overwhelmingly for him.
“Our Senator has introduced a new dimension into Delta Central Senatorial District. He believes in human capital development and that is his core dream. And that is what he is seriously working on. He is bringing out many Urhobo men and women from all walks of life teaching everyone the reason why we must help ourselves, why we must grow ourselves.
“So, it is a new thing. It is not a case of people coming around to take hand packs He does not like to give fish to people. He is bent on teaching people how to fish. And if he can teach as many people as he can to catch fish, the economy of Delta Central will experience a turn around and it will become an el Dorado. And that is what the people want”, he said.
